Abstract

The project takes the first steps to determine if a home-meal replacement enterprise would be a successful venture for small-scale producers in southwest Iowa.

Key Question

Would your ag business/farm operation benefit from the creation of a business whose end-product would source locally grown/produced/processed, in-season ag products, and would you and others you know be willing to participate?

Findings

The project proposed that a business be structured and developed that would supply customers with home meal replacements that were delivered or made available at pick-up locations using menus that were created from locally grown/processed/produced products.
